Invest in Apartments Alongside an Experienced Owner

Prestige Properties partners with a select group of investors to acquire, improve, and operate apartment communities with a focus on cash flow, long-term value creation, and thoughtful risk management.

Since 1998, we have completed more than 1,500 real estate transactions, acquired over $250 million in real estate, and grown to 700 apartment units through disciplined acquisitions, strategic renovations, and operational excellence.

Our investors gain exposure to multifamily real estate without the responsibility of finding properties, managing renovations, handling tenants, overseeing maintenance, or operating apartment communities.

What Our Investors Say

The investments I have made with the Painter twins in their apartment community purchases have proved to be an incredible diversification tool in my portfolio. I've invested with them for seven years now and have seen an exceptional return. They are highly skilled at what they do and operate with the utmost integrity. They have exceeded my expectations and always deliver.

Rob Siegmann
Partner, Carson Wealth
I've invested with the Painter brothers for seven years now. They've always done what they say they would, delivering great results. Best of all, I haven't had to do any of the work while still benefiting from investing in real estate.

Common Investor Questions

Answers to some of the most common questions about investing
with Prestige.
If I decide to invest, what is the process?

Investing with Prestige is project-based. Once an opportunity arises, we provide you with a comprehensive package that includes detailed property information, financials, the renovation plan, and key demographic data. Our investor portal streamlines the entire process – from reviewing the offering documents to signing legal agreements and wiring investment funds. Your ownership interest as a limited partner is secured by the operating agreement, while the offering memorandum outlines the specifics of the investment. Should you have any questions, our team is always available to assist

What is the minimum investment required?

Our minimum investment is typically $100,000, though it may vary based on the size and scope of each opportunity. Each offering memorandum will clearly outline the minimum commitment, and many investors choose to invest above the minimum to maximize their participation in the opportunity.

How do you select properties for purchase?

We use a rigorous selection process for identifying multifamily properties. This involves analyzing market conditions, property financials, growth potential, and value-add opportunities. Our team focuses on factors like neighborhood demographics, employment trends, and local economic indicators to assess long-term profitability.

What kind of returns can I expect?

Our projects typically aim for an 13-18% internal rate of return (IRR). Investors benefit from both cash flow during the holding period and profits from appreciation upon sale or refinancing. Investors receive an 8% preferred return, meaning they get paid before Prestige gets paid it's promote. Please note that past performance is not indicative of future results and no returns are guaranteed.

How is my money protected?

Prestige has been in business since 1998, successfully completing more than 1,500 transactions. We are highly selective and conservative, purchasing properties below market value and off-market. This approach mitigates risk, ensuring that if an issue arises, the property can be resold and investors repaid. Your investment is secured through your membership in the company that owns the property. However, like all investments, there are inherent risks, although we have never lost investor money due to our conservative investment strategy.

When will I get my money back?

The typical investment period is five years, giving us time to complete renovations, raise rents, and time the market for the most favorable sale. Depending on market conditions, some projects may be sold or refinanced earlier. Once the project exits, investors can choose to either roll their funds into the next opportunity or withdraw them.

Is this a debt or equity investment?

This is an equity investment. Investors receive an equity stake in the project based on their investment amount, along with a preferred return. Investors are paid their preferred return first, before Prestige receives a share of the profit, aside from fees earned to cover overhead costs. Full details of the investment terms are provided in the offering memorandum.

Do I have to sign a personal guarantee?

No, as an investor you are not required to sign a personal guarantee. While the bank loans used to finance the property may require a personal guarantee, Prestige's principals takes on that responsibility. Since this is an equity investment, investors are not personally liable for the bank loans.

Can I invest using my Self-Directed IRA?

Yes, many of our investors use Self-Directed IRAs to invest in our projects. However, we recommend consulting with your tax advisor to ensure it aligns with your retirement strategy.

How long will my money be tied up?

Typically, investments are held for 5-7 years, depending on the project’s business plan and market conditions. This allows time for renovations, rent increases, and property appreciation. During this period, the investment is illiquid.

Are there any tax benefits to investing?

Yes, real estate syndication offers various tax advantages, such as depreciation and mortgage interest deductions. These can help reduce taxable income, but tax treatment varies for each investor, so we recommend discussing this with your tax advisor.

What happens if the property underperforms?

In the event a property does not meet expectations, we have multiple exit strategies available, including selling the property to recoup the investment. Although no investment is without risk, we prioritize mitigating these risks through conservative underwriting and acquiring properties at below-market prices.

How are distributions made?

Distributions are typically made on a quarterly basis once the property begins generating cash flow. Investors receive their share based on the terms outlined in the offering memorandum and investment agreement.

Can I exit the investment early?

Apartment syndications are generally illiquid, meaning early exit options are limited. However, some syndications may offer secondary markets or buyout options. This should be discussed with our team before investing.

What role does Prestige Properties play?

As the general partner (GP), Prestige is responsible for sourcing, acquiring, and managing the property. We handle all aspects of the project, from due diligence to renovation and ongoing property management, so you can remain a passive investor.

What fees does Prestige Properties charge?

Prestige charges standard industry fees to cover our operational and management costs. These typically include an acquisition fee (1%), asset management fee (1%), and property management fee (3%). All fees will be transparently outlined in the offering memorandum for each investment.

What happens if the market experiences a downturn?

We mitigate market downturn risks by purchasing properties below market value and focusing on cash-flowing assets. Our conservative approach ensures that even if property values decline, the property's cash flow from rental income can still provide stable returns. Additionally, our holding period allows us flexibility to wait for market conditions to improve before selling the property.

Can I reinvest my returns into future projects?

Yes, you have the option to reinvest your returns into future Prestige projects. This allows you to compound your investments and continue growing your portfolio with us
